June 15, 2023: This was the second year our son attended. The camp being at Berry is the thing I love. I’m an alum so I love that my gets to experience the campus. My son has loved his coaches (especially this year). He learns so much about the game and is always excited to put what he learns into practice. The Berry team also perfectly balances the teaching of practical skills of basketball with the important life lessons that come with learning to be a good teammate, working hard, and succeeding and failing together. We just love this camp so much!
